Collecting 2016: The Best and the Rest
Most of my dolly funds went for Superdoll, designer fashions, wigs and Kingdom Doll. Other purchases were scattered amongst Integrity Toys, Mattel and Tonner.
Mattel wins the award for a good idea but failed execution with regards to its articulated Silkstone. The first release, Classic Black Dress Barbie® Doll, was a huge disappointment. The finish of the Silkstone seams and joints was poor. The dress was seriously cheap-looking. There was no quality at all.
I did buy two other Silkstone dolls this year but I think I'm going to stop. Glam Gown has a pretty face, a nice hairstyle and in the promotional photo, her gown looks lovely. Unfortunately, IRL, the fabric is stiff and doesn't drape well. Too bad.
Stiff As A Board Barbie |
In my not so humble opinion, the best doll Mattel produced in 2016 was The Barbie Look™ Barbie® Doll – Party Perfect.
She has an articulated body, a cute hairdo, a decent face and an adorable outfit. AND...she actually looks like the promo picture! Shocking. Compared to my other dolls she was cost near to nothing and she's just a delight so it didn't matter than the "accessories" were garbage.
I have a very eclectic collection which contains dolls costing less than $20 up to $1000. I buy what I like.

Plays Arts Kai is Bringing Us Some AMAZING FF7 Remake Action Figures
Hopefully, these are merely the first of many FF7 Remake action figures! When I was a wee lad, I experienced the first Final Fantasy on the NES, and I was sold on role-playing games. The Super Nintendo brought Final Fantasy 4 and 6, and my love for the series was cemented. So as a teenager, […]

round about: white elephants & snowy gifts
If you are in the northern half of the US this week, you’re probably feeling the cold just like we are here. I think this morning the low was around -11 degrees Fahrenheit. I hear rumors that on Sunday we won’t even get above zero. I guess that’s one way to bring in Christmas spirit! […]

Superdoll: The Girls Gather for the Holidays
#1 NOBLE DD_0119
The Girls Gather for the HOLIDAYS.
The Swan Coronet
Noble is as Noble does....
A vision in red and gold. Atop her head she wears her glittering beret dribbling with jewels and an organza bow. Platinum blunt bob with fringe diverted. Her face palette is that of rich tones of Ruby, with piercing Azure eyes, tip shaded cranberry brows and lids highlighted in 'gold'.
For this little 'family' get together of clones, she chose to go a little sporty. She wears a crimson zip up velvet track top and a matching crimson skirt bearing lace up front detail. Accents of gilt tulle and hip quilting give her the detail and the curves! Her waist cinched by a broad gold belt. Over her 'sweats' she wears a darling emperor yellow organza night gown with yellow hose and emperor yellow satin concealed platform court shoes.
As to her REGALIA.... she chose a short white 'ermine' plush cape lined in leopard print satin and a gorgeous bandeau of scarlet adorned with 'door knocker' lion heads.
The finishing touch, other than her leopard satin neck bow is of course... her presence.
What is her gift of advent we ask?
This holiday she is most excited to receive a shard of lightning hand mirror.

Her face palette is that of rich tones of charcoal and lips of pale dusty rose, with piercing amber eyes,solid tip brows in bitter chocolate and lids bearing eyeliner in pure creme.

This grand gown has a detatchable black satin train with envelope top and tiny black bow fastner. Under her gown she wears darling nude hose and court shoes bearing concealed platform.

My favorite face is that of Law. I love her detailed lips and tame color palette. Not a fan of the big gown, however. The outfit I'd most like to have is Nobles.
